The Washington Center Internships Program
The University of Memphis has established a partnership with The Washington Center
for Internships and Academic Seminars that provides a unique opportunity for students
to work and study in our nation's capital. Interns pay UofM tuition and fees, and
also receive about $6,000 in financial assistance from the Tennessee Board of Regents
toward The Washington Center's fees, tuition, housing, and transportation. All UofM
financial aid arrangements (Hope Scholarship, University scholarships, etc.) remain
in effect.

TigerLink (Handshake) is a online career management platform for students. Managed
by the UofM career services office, Tigerlink offers a robust college recruiting platform
for employers. It is great way for students to find potential internship and career
opportunities.
International Internships
International internships are available through the UofM Study Abroad Office. Most
international internships are offered in English and do not require knowledge of a
second language.
